AN ISIS fanatic who urged extremists to attack Prince George has been stabbed in prison, it has been reported. Husnain Rashid, 32, was allegedly slashed with a makeshift knife, with blood "all over his cell" at Manchester's Strangeways jail.

This guy, at his age, was still living with Mommy and Daddy, but he's a really tough guy. He'll also be in jail for the next 25 to 30 years. If he lives that long. But hey, he loves death, so he's got that going for him.

HOUSTON (AP) - A Jordanian immigrant could face the death penalty after a Texas jury convicted him of killing his daughter’s American husband and an Iranian women’s rights activist in what prosecutors described as “honor killings.”

Prosecutors say Ali Mahwood-Awad Irsan was enraged when Nesreen Irsan left home to marry a Christian and convert to Christianity, so he orchestrated the killings of his son-in-law and his daughter’s close friend who had encouraged the marriage.

At this point, it's either life in prison or death for ol' Ali. And being that it's Texas, they don't have any compunction when it comes to the death penalty.

Irsan’s trial in Houston lasted five weeks, but jurors deliberated for just 35 minutes Thursday before convicting him in the deaths of Coty Beavers and Gelareh Bagherzadeh, according to the Houston Chronicle.

At least he has his "honor". We really need to bring more of these folks into our country. Because Diversity and all.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) is planning to fire 250 workers in Palestinian territories after the United States plans to pull nearly $300 million in aid.

While the UNRWA and its employees are saying Washington’s funding cuts an “existential threat,” and calling the firings a “death certificate” for workers, the U.S. has been by far the largest donor to the agency in recent years.

There's no such thing as "Palestine" and never has been. The nomadic goat-herders spend a great deal of time and money now-days shooting rockets and arson bombs into Israel. No Arab countries will take them in, so why should the taxpayers in the USA give them millions of dollars? The so-called "Palestinians" refuse to enter into peace negotiations with Israel; they just want free money to keep bombing them.

Protests erupted outside of UNRWA’s headquarters in Gaza City on Wednesday over the job cuts, and one man tried to set himself on fire before other protestors put out the flames, an AFP reporter on the scene described.

The wife of a Jordanian-born man on trial for capital murder says her husband sneaked into their son-in-law's Texas apartment before fatally shooting him in 2012. She says her husband, a conservative Muslim, believed the only way to recover his honor was to kill the Christian man his daughter ran away to marry.

The wife testified as part of a plea deal, as she was facing complicity charges since she knew about the murder. Her husband is looking at the death penalty - which being as this is Texas, is something they actually carry out. But at least he has his honor.

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Denmark has banned the wearing of face veils in public, joining France and other European countries in outlawing the burqa and the niqab worn by some Muslim women to uphold what some politicians say are secular and democratic values. Zainab Ibn Hssain, who lives in Copenhagen and has been wearing the niqab for the last year, told Reuters: "It's not nice. It will mean that I won't be able to go to school, go to work or go out with my family." "It has nothing to do with integration or that we're oppressed. For me it is a war on Islam," she said.

There are over 50 different Muslim countries where their garb is welcome. Why not move there? The war is not "on Islam", it is from Islam.

A Syrian soldier was unlucky enough to get himself captured by Daesh, who then went to great trouble to execute him. They tied long boards to his body, bound him so that he couldn't move, strapped a helmet filled with explosives and an impact detonator to his head, then launched him head-first from the top of a building.

Those guys are seriously messed up. But they're still around, committing atrocities whenever possible. It's beginning to look as though the only way to be rid of them involves deployment of a number of neutron bombs. Yes, it'd kill every living thing in the area, but would at least leave infrastructure intact, so that decent people could move in and begin to restore the area.

A teenager whose disappearance from her San Antonio, Texas, high school sparked an FBI search told investigators she was hiding from her abusive parents, who beat her and poured hot cooking oil on her for rejecting a forced marriage with an adult man, authorities said.

The parents arranged in mid-2017 for their then-15-year-old daughter, Maarib Al Hishmawi, to marry a man who offered the family $20,000, the sheriff’s office said. When the girl refused, the parents beat her with broomsticks, choked her and repeatedly poured hot cooking oil on her.

The Al Hishmawi family has been in the U.S. for two years on visas, police told the San Antonio Express. They immigrated from Iraq, according to KSAT-12.

The girl and her five siblings are in CPS custody as investigations continue. Additional charges are expected. Apparently Daddy and Mommy didn't realize that it's not acceptable in this country to sell a child. They were really looking forward to that 20 grand.

Barbarism may be okay in their country, but if they want to live here, they have to live by our laws.

But then, there's that old Iraqi proverb: spare the boiling oil, spoil the child.

Seyed Emami was one of the founders of the Persian Wildlife Heritage Foundation, which is working to protect Iran's wildlife and promote conservation projects. On Sunday, Abbas Jafari-Dolatabadi, Tehran's prosecutor general, said the environmentalist "was accused of espionage and committed suicide after confessing his crimes while in prison".

There's nothing at all suspicious about this. In Iran, it's actually relatively common for political prisoners to commit suicide while in prison; especially those accused of training lizard to spy on Iranian nuclear facilities. Most often, they fall down an elevator shaft.
